Comment 41 for bug 1620771

this alias completely breaks snap confinement an it is a matter of sheer luck that you can even run it at all this way (because none of the library paths the snap confinement setup establishes on app startup will be around) ...

you are just lucky that you are running the correct versions of libs on you host, but an update might break everything ...

if you'd actually want to run such a binary without confinement, i'd recommend reading all the different wrappers shipped in the snap and replicating their behaviour to have all environment variables set properly ...
